GridControl.GroupRowCollapsing Event
Occurs when a group row is about to be collapsed, allowing cancellation of the action.
Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.Grid
Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.Grid.v24.2.dll
NuGet Package: DevExpress.Wpf.Grid.Core
Declaration
Event Data
The GroupRowCollapsing event's data class is RowAllowEventArgs. The following properties provide information specific to this event:
Property | Description |
---|---|
Allow | Gets or sets whether the operation is allowed. |
Handled | Gets or sets a value that indicates the present state of the event handling for a routed event as it travels the route. Inherited from RoutedEventArgs. |
OriginalSource | Gets the original reporting source as determined by pure hit testing, before any possible Source adjustment by a parent class. Inherited from RoutedEventArgs. |
RoutedEvent | Gets or sets the RoutedEvent associated with this RoutedEventArgs instance. Inherited from RoutedEventArgs. |
Row | Gets the processed row. Inherited from RowEventArgs. |
RowHandle | Gets the processed row’s handle. Inherited from RowEventArgs. |
Source | Gets or sets a reference to the object that raised the event. Inherited from RoutedEventArgs. |
The event data class exposes the following methods:
Method | Description |
---|---|
InvokeEventHandler(Delegate, Object) | When overridden in a derived class, provides a way to invoke event handlers in a type-specific way, which can increase efficiency over the base implementation. Inherited from RoutedEventArgs. |
OnSetSource(Object) | When overridden in a derived class, provides a notification callback entry point whenever the value of the Source property of an instance changes. Inherited from RoutedEventArgs. |
Remarks
The GroupRowCollapsing event is raised before a group row is collapsed by an end-user or in code, allowing you to cancel this action. The group row is identified by its handle via the RowEventArgs.RowHandle property. To prevent the group row from being collapsed, set the event parameter’s RowAllowEventArgs.Allow parameter to false.
Group rows can be collapsed recursively using the GridViewBase.CollapseFocusedRow method overload with the recursive parameter set to true. In this instance, the GroupRowCollapsing event is raised only once (for the row passed as this method’s parameter). This event isn’t raised for nesting group rows.
The GridControl.CollapseAllGroups method allows you to collapse all group rows. In this instance, the GroupRowCollapsing event is raised only once. The event parameter’s RowEventArgs.RowHandle property returns an invalid row handle (DataControlBase.InvalidRowHandle).
After the group row has been collapsed, the GridControl.GroupRowCollapsed event is raised.

Example
The following example does not allow users to collapse the Status: Invalidated group row and expand the Status: Delivered group row.
<dxg:GridControl x:Name="grid"
EndGrouping="OnEndGrouping"
GroupRowCollapsing="OnGroupRowCollapsing"
GroupRowCollapsed="OnGroupRowCollapsed"

GroupRowExpanded="OnGroupRowExpanded">
<dxg:GridColumn FieldName="ProductName"/>
<dxg:GridColumn FieldName="Price"/>
<dxg:GridColumn FieldName="Discount"/>
<dxg:GridColumn FieldName="Status" GroupIndex="0" SortOrder="Descending"/>
<dxg:GridControl.View>
<dxg:TableView x:Name="view" GroupValueTemplateSelector="{StaticResource groupRowTemplateSelector}"/>
</dxg:GridControl.View>
</dxg:GridControl>
void OnEndGrouping(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) {

var groupRow = grid.GetParentRowHandle(childRow);
grid.ExpandGroupRow(groupRow);
